The high density of tungsten needles can have both advantages and disadvantages for their performance in different applications.
One advantage is that the high density allows tungsten needles to penetrate and apply force with precision, making them suitable for micro-injection and micro-surgery applications. The density also allows for increased stability and reduced vibration during use, which is beneficial for precision cutting and micro-machining.
On the other hand, the high density can make tungsten needles heavier and more difficult to handle, especially when they are very long or have a large diameter. In some applications, such as in the field of nanotechnology, lighter materials may be preferred to minimize any disturbances or interference caused by the needle.
